• We have achieved School of Sanctuary status
• Our work around diversity and inclusiveness has been celebrated
• Students and staff collected award at Birkenhead Town Hall

We have made sure that our school community understands what it means to be seeking sanctuary and the issues surrounding forced migration.

MS. MCGOWAN: SENDCO

We are delighted to have become a School of Sanctuary after receiving accreditation from City of Sanctuary UK. These awards recognise and celebrate those who go above and beyond in welcoming people who seek sanctuary.

Our school has always been inclusive and welcoming, celebrating the diversity that makes our community so wonderful. Recently we have worked hard to make sure our school community understands what it means to seek sanctuary and the issues surrounding forced migration.

A big part of this was our successful Refugee Week – a week in which we celebrated all of the different cultures and faiths, and learned about the different languages of everyone who help make our school community as strong as it is.

SENDCo Ms. McGowan said: “We were so proud to receive our award at Birkenhead Town Hall this week. We will continue to celebrate diversity and to offer a warm welcome to all those that would like to be part of our community.”
